Any chance of a Handi in 7.62x39?

[Ridge Runner]

Since the Handi rifles are really economical, wouldn't an economical cartridge like the 7.62x39 be a good barrel to produce?

The ammo is plentiful, inexpensive and fun to shoot

I would buy one in a heartbeat.

I am going to contact NEF and request that they start producing it.

What do you guys think?

The 7.62x39 is already planned for this year, but only as an accessory barrel  by July....BUT....the bore on them will be .308", not the better to shoot cheap ammo .311", so don't plan on shooting cheap ammo real accurately.
